For anyone who has this year's invaders, have you had any problems? Is the delamination problem fixed and how well do the edges hold up to rail abuse?

the top sheet will chip and scratch like a bitch. They flex super sweet, mine have not delamed yet, with over a month of riding.

Yesterday, I did see someone who had the same edge popping out at the top, but that is one out 15 or so people who I know who have this years invaders.

sure. i mean its a park ski and it will get destroyed.

right now, 36% off at portertahoe.com with the discount code. 191 total. so yes, best ski for that much money.
